Schmidt & McMahon Rebound | New York Yankees News

Clarke Schmidt is back on the mound for the Somerset Patriots, recovering from his second Tommy John surgery and aiming to rejoin the Yankees in September—this time out of the bullpen to prep for a full 2026 season. Inspired by Gerrit Cole’s comeback, Schmidt’s competitive fire fuels his return. Meanwhile, Ryan McMahon, rehabbing a Grade 2 thumb sprain, is expected to join the team after Sunday’s game and could be activated on September 1st, with plans to get game reps in Somerset before heading west with the big club. Both players are focused on making an impact now and building momentum for next year. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
